Book Reviews of The Healthy Slow Cooker

Book Review: Cant go wrong with easy and healthy
Summary: 5 Stars

We have had about half a dozen dishes now out of this book. I really enjoy it as slow cookers are the lazy way to cook and most of the time you get a slow cooker book its full of garbage. Lazy cooking plus healthy is my idea of great. Toss the stuff in.. head to work ... come home and eat.

Summary of The Healthy Slow Cooker

A winning combination of healthy eating and convenience.

Here's an ideal combination: a tasty meal, nutrition for good health, and the convenience of a slow cooker. The Healthy Slow Cooker offers more than 100 delicious, nourishing recipes that are healthy and contain key nutritional, health and wellness information. Along with a complete nutrient analysis, each recipe will feature:

  • An icon denotes vegan friendly recipes
  • "Mindful morsels" that highlight particular nutritional elements
  • "Natural Wonders" that provide an a overview of a dish's healthful benefits

For example, Indian-Style Chicken with Pur?ed Spinach provides 400% of the daily requirement of Vitamin K, and cumin in the recipe improves digestion. Here's a small sampling of the tantalizing array of recipes:

  • Creamy Polenta with Corn and Chilies
  • Moroccan-Style Lamb with Apricots and Raisins
  • Ribs 'n' Greens with Wheatberries
  • Winter Vegetable Casserole
  • Cranberry Pear Brown Betty
  • Indian Banana Pudding

For diabetics, the book features a separate section of useful advice and nutrition guidelines.
